Schumacher Mi4CXL 1/10th Competition Tourer 4WD
The Mi4CXL is the latest version of the highly successful Schumacher Mi4 touring car range. Now with 2 British national titles and numerous European and World event wins the CXL takes winning to the next level.
Schumacher's World Championship winning design team, with the help of top drivers such as Chris Grainger and Martin Hofer have improved the Mi4CX chassis design, making a car that is faster, yet easier to drive than ever before.
Mi4CXL drivers will reduce their lap times and improve their positions in both qualifying and race conditions.
We think the Mi4CXL is quite simply the best touring car ever!
